Patti Stanger just might be adding "mom" to her list of accomplishments.
The 51-year-old "Millionaire Matchmaker" has taken the first steps in the adoption process.
"I really want to adopt a child," Stanger told Life & Style Weekly. "I want to be called 'Mom.' It really is the most beautiful word in the English language."
She said she has spoken to lawyers and plans to complete the necessary paperwork when she's finished shooting her Bravo show in June.
Stanger - who broke off her engagement to Andy Friedman in 2010 because he didn't want to have children - said she is dating a man who has children and has shared her plans with him.
"I'd love to be a stepmom and then add to the family," Stanger said.
